DEEP SPACE NINE: "Rules of... " REV. 1/26/96 - ACT ONE 6.
21 CONTINUED:
CHIPOK
The Klingon Empire makes the
following allegations against
Lieutenant Commander Worf: That
on Stardate 49648 while in command
of the Starship Defiant, he did
knowingly fire upon and destroy a
Klingon civilian transport ship
near the Pentath system. And as
a result of this action, four
hundred forty-one Klingon
civilians were killed.
Ch'Pok takes a few steps around the room.
CH'POK
(continuing)
It is my intention to prove that
Mister Worf was grossly negligent
in his command of the Defiant.
That his lust for battle overrode
his good judgement. I ask only
that he be returned to us... to
face the justice of his own
people.
(beat)
Thank you.
He sits. Sisko stands.

The Advocate neglected to mention
in his opening statement that at
the time in question, the Defiant
was under attack by two Klingon
warships. This was a combat
situation, with hundreds of lives
at stake. It was at that moment,
when the transport ship suddenly
decloaked in front of the Defiant.
(beat)
Worf gave the order to fire, not
because he was reckless or
negligent, but because he believed
he was firing on a warship. We
intend to show that the
destruction of the transport was
a tragic, but unavoidable,
accident.
Sisko sits.
T'LARA
I will hear formal evidence
beginning tomorrow afternoon at
fifteen hundred hours.
